Those reports are mistaken (I've missed them or I'd've commented on them directly -- I can't read every single post anymore, the boards are just too active -- a good problem to have ). On the 505 you can use both at the same time. They specifically touched on that during the conference call. You can use a 2 GB SD card and an 8GB memory stick at the same time, giving you 10 GB total on memory cards. I wouldn't want to wade through all those entries, myself.
Indeed. I have the previously mentioned 2GB SD Card, plus the 2GB MSPD card that Frys has on sale this weekend (http://www.Frys-Electronics-Ads.com) in my PRS-505 and I can access either card, plus the internal memory - all at the same time.

The Sony PRS-505 does not let you copy or move files around between the 2 card and internal memory without a PC.

The Sony PRS-505 does let you use it as a card reader / writer on any PC with a USB port, even without the Sony software installed. I love skipping the card reader!

These are the kinds of things that I started this thread to address. I may clean up lots of it, and move it to the wiki.
